  1. Rose has grown on me as well and I agree that Lewin who I like is a big part of it. I do still miss Bob Murphy on the radio.
  2. Thole now in the game. Jenrry Mejia, first start at AAA on the long road back from Tommy John surgery, 68 pitches (45 for strikes) in 6 innings of 2-hit ball (1 walk, 2 Ks).

The deal is signed but, as a good "company man", Wright and his agent have agreed to keep quiet until the press conference... To be held the day that 2013 Season Ticket renewal notices go out.
  4. Gwreck wrote: The downward trend of attendance is due to a confluence of factors, including: 1. Poor overall team performance for three consecutive seasons (following two seasons of "collapses"); 2. (Over)pricing problems; 3. Fan apathy/anger at Wilpons. 4. The novelty of Citi Field has worn off and despite the food it just doesn't have the FEELINGS of Shea, so people don't go.
  5. This offseason, 8 years 180 million.

As per Rubin on Twitter, Backman said it was a paperwork issue (w/MLBPA), not an injury issue. OE: And Gary confirms, on-air. Thanks for the update, my radio feed cut out

  8. Hitting the ball very gently (ie bunting) is a great way to ensure that only bad things happen! Yeah it was Dillon Gee, but could we just stop robotically bunting please?
  9. Howie Rose reporting on air that Josh Thole, DHing for Buffalo tonight, was pinch-hit for early. No explanation yet. Concussions are the injury that don't stop fucking you. Someone bean Wiggy in the face for causing this one!
  10. The Mets are Ty Wigginton's bitch.
  11. Edgy DC wrote: I'd invite Benitez anywhere. ANYWHERE! Anywhere but a Sunday Night game against the Braves in September.
  12. It beats WPIX cutting to a sitcom rerun imo, and I wouldn't want "Mets Classic Games" or anything like that because who would want to cut out of Game 6 to get back to the rainout? Yearbook is fine, keep it on mute til the game comes back if you really want.
  13. Time to take our time! Let's Go Thunder&Lightning!
  14. I don't think there is any evidence that two innings on Monday will burn a guy out faster than one inning monday and one inning tuesday. If anything the guy who threw two on monday and was unavailable tuesday spent less pitches warming up.
  15. Every time I see a prospect described as having speed and no power I think of Jason Tyner. Trust your scouts and your stat geeks (please tell me you have both, right?) And take the best player on your board... But if its close, I'd tend to avoid guys whose best "tool" is speed and opt for the guy who hits well, doesn't embarass himself in the field (projects to a corner spot but not DH), and hits some doubles that the scouts see turning to homers when the kid fills out his frame.
  16. Edgy DC wrote: Manny Acosta. Anybody see if he brought the gasoline and matches with him? The matches are ALWAYS in Acosta's back pocket. Batista, Young, and Beato all on their ways back from injury, one of those should clear Manny from the roster
  17. Wiggy is a met-killer today, Phils retake the lead on his single
  18. It goes without saying that I benched Hairston for some guy named Aoki in my NL-only league this week (weekly lineups.) He just made me wish I'd slept late instead of checking the computer before I went to work today! Tied again! Come on MLB, jack up the volume on the radio feed so I can hear the 7th inning singing!

  20. Edgy DC wrote: Would it be the worst thing in the world if Josh Satin was removed from the roster and exposed? Jack Egbert, for that matter, is going to be sent down in a day or two anyhow. How about removing him from the roster? Neither would be missed, even if they were claimed.
  21. Niese issues his 5th walk to star the inning, then falls behind 3-0 before allowing a 3-1 pitch homerun... Get him out of here
  22. batmagadanleadoff wrote: Rottino Home Runs are becoming Routine-o around here. Rottino is grabbing hold of that roster spot and not letting go!
  23. bmfc1 wrote: Did Teufel hold Johnson late so Turner was expecting the throw home which lead him to make a big turn which lead to the injury? Radio saying that Teufel held Johnson in plemty of time but Johnson rounded the bag before scurrying back anyway. Niese needs a quick inning here to get back on track, 80+ pitches already
  24. Turner helped off the field. Wright moves from 3B to SS Rottino moves from LF to 3B Niewenhuis enters the game to play CF Hairston moves from CF to LF
